unless I'm mistaken, they don't exist for the GS.

you're gonna have to take a dremmel tool to that bad boy.  check out the mods links on the main site.  Most simply cut the rear fender off.

Well chop that fender off... and its eliminated... consult the 3 billion threads or pablo's site...
Basically 2-3 ways, You could give it the V, the landing strip, the just barely there to fit the hanger or completely clean and custom fit.
Cool.

no fender eliminators made for the gs except for one that is sold as a kit from rich500's belgian friend (may sell it separately, you'll have to search for it here.)

I'm so totally jealous of you people who don't have to go through annual inspections.

In PA, the code is 9 inches apart, center-to-center for rear-sigs... 9 FREAKIN' INCHES!!! :x   The ones on my R6 (below) are already illegal (8"), but certain inspection mechanics will overlook them when they are so near to spec.

Of course, if you go by PA code, modifying the fender in any way is illegal  :roll:

Well... then cut it so that you can duct tape it back for inspection.
Cool.
